POWERSTAR SERVES UP ADDITIONAL SAVINGS FOR CYPRUS FOODSTUFF RETAILER

Our latest case study summary demonstrates Powerstar’s universal ability to deliver savings for high energy users across the world. Focussing on the popular foodstuff retailer in Cyprus, Foodsaver, the case study summarises the substantial savings achieved across a portfolio of sites.

Foodsaver is a retail chain of food stores launched in 2011 by ipH Iakovos Photiades Foodstuff Suppliers Ltd. that sells a variety of value own-label items housed in eight stores across Cyprus. It is known for delivering a variety of value for money own-label foodstuff in a convenient and comfortable environment.

An existing customer of ours, the company had already installed two Powerstar LITE systems within its Latsia and Aglantzia stores.

The Latsia store, which also functions as a distribution centre since it is situated within the company grounds, benefits from the installation of a 575kVA Powerstar LITE on the grounds’ supply.

Analysis of the two previous installations found that both sites were benefiting from significant reductions in energy consumption and CO2 emissions, exceeding the 100% guaranteed savings quoted by Powerstar. Following these positive results, Foodsaver looked to further reduce its energy consumption at the remaining six stores across Cyprus.

The installations were facilitated by Powerstar’s approved distributor for the region, Powerstar Cyprus, who maintain a great relationship with both ipH and Foodsaver and will continue to fulfil the installation and savings verification for the remaining six sites. The full results of the installations can be seen in the full Foodsaver case study by clicking here.

For the six remaining stores, the Powerstar team identified the incoming voltage at all sites to be fairly stable but higher than required for on-site equipment and recommended the installation of fixed voltage Powerstar LITE solutions at each site to reduce the voltage by a pre-determined optimal amount. The guaranteed results of the installations is anticipated to achieve at least an average consumption saving of 7.0% across all sites.

We look forward to continuing to work with Foodsaver on its remaining six sites and are excited to verify the savings results in the near future.
